BUILDING ASSOCIATIONS.

This organization will not be formed
for the benefit Of Capitalists, but for
the people who want homes. The stock
will be issued at $4,000 per share, pay
able at the rate Of IS cents per month,
or so cents per month to borrowers.
As We understand the scheme, it is as
follows: Suppose man wishes to Dor.
row $4,000 for the purpose of building
a house; he would take twenty shares
OF stock. the monthly payments on
which would amount to $40 90; he would
assign this stock to the association, As
security for the amount borrowed; 30
soon as his paymen is amount to the
sum borrowed, the house would be his.
1t will be seen from this, tina what he
would ordinarily pay for rent would pay
for his house in about four years.
People who are paying rent, and ex-
pect to live here, could. in this way, soon
have homes of their own. Just so soon
as the organization is perfected, we ex.
pect to see many applications for stock.

The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1887-08-05

Thos G. Evans was sentenced by Judge
Woodward at Wilkesbarre, last week, to
pay fine OF 800, and undergo imprison-
ment for thirty days, for attempted bribery
at the republican county convention last
year.
The circumstances may be briefly recount
ed. At the County Convention a number
of delegates made combination, and con-
cluded not to vote for any candidate unless
paid for it. Evans, In the interest Of this
combination, was instructed to see one of
the candidates for sheriff, and offer him the
votes of the combination at $40 a head.
The candidate not only declined this, but
he afterwards had Evans arrested. He
was convicted and has now been sentenced.
This, we believe, is the first case under the
Act of 1881, to prevent bribery and fraud
at nominating conventions. 1t will doubt
less have wholesome effect in locality
where il was greatly needed.

THE PRoDfGAL OF 1887 COMPARED WITH HIS
sCRIPTURAL PROTOTYPE.

No, my son, it isn't that the world has
grown hard hearted; it isn't that we aren't
just as glad to-day to see the prodigal come
back, and just as lovingly anxious to well
come him home as ever was anybodylu the
fifteenth chapter Of Luke. II is the man
ner in which the prodigal son of 1887 fire.
quently returns that throws the wet blanket
over the festivities of the welcome. When
he comes down the road with his hat
hanging on his car and his hands IN his
pocket when he kicks the faithful old
house dog as he lounges in at the gate; when
he calls his father ''Gov'nor" and the hired
man "Cull;" when he wants to know
'Whats for dinner ?" before he has been
in the house fifteen minutes; when he gives
his elder brother two fingers to shake and
advises him to comb the hayseed out of his
hair; when he throws himself into the easi-
est chair in the house, perches his feet on
the window sill and announces that he'll
''take tub before dinner" when he comes
back with generally forgiving air of good
fellowship about HIM, and tries to make
all the rest of the family very easy and re-
assured then it is, my son, that your
father longs TO run and meet you while
you are yet great way off, and fall upon
your neck with a plow line and welt you
into state of becoming humility and PEN
itence by the time you are able to take off
your hat to the bound boy, and crawl up
the front steps to ask your brother to shake
hands with you. Good people are just as
glad to-day as ever they were, my son, to
see the prodigal come home, but it does
rattle them little to see him come in a
hack and ask them to pay the driver and
send for his baggage.

The Old story.
a FARMER INDUCED By CONFIDENCE MEN TO
DRAW $1,000 PROM TuK BANK.

A telegram from Greensburg says that
the thieves who robbed John l.. Miller
some weeks ago Of 80, 900 have been traced
and are definitely located. The particulars
of this robbery have but lately come to
light The confidence gentlemen had con-
vinced Mr.. Miller that by joining them in
the purchase Of a farm which they were Of
fered cheap, he could realize profit of 70
per cent. One OF them went TO him in the
field where he was at work and got him to
go to the bank at irwin to draw out the
80, 500 which amount they were short.
When he had drawn his money and was
returning 10 the farm in the strangers
buggy, at point in the woods near Miller's
home, they were met by two other strang-
ers who, al the point Of revolvers, compell-
ed them both to give up their money. They
then made old Mr.. Miller swear that he
would not reveal this proceeding. The
old gentleman had so much reverence for
aa oath that he positively refused to di-
vulge any particulars to his family. A
letter from Sunbury, Pa, states that the
gentlemen who did this are identified, and
steps will be taken to give them their de-
serts.
